As a mother and a gran I can't even begin to imagine what she had to go through and to have had to listen to that tape....there are no words. God bless you and hope you are reunited at last
The way police treat victims of crime leaves a lot to be desired at times and the identification of Lesley Ann Downey was no exception, asking her mother to view the photos of her gagged and bound and even worse having to listen to the tape recording of her being abused. And the media exploited her again and again over the next 30 years with the horrific details being recalled repeatedly, all for the sake of The Sun and the Mirror and all the rest of them wanting to sell a few more papers. And worst of all they did it when Mrs West was slowly dying of cancer.
@@murdered33 She listened to it twice: once at the police station, once during trial. She was shown 2 of the photos taken -- the 2 the cops thought would be easiest to see.
@@firebird7388 She lost her child she was pregnabt with too. She lost two children. And never forget, she was forced to look at her in the Morgue, alone, her husband was forbidden to come with her. She had to look at her dear child, which had been TEN MONTH in the ground even with no coffin. In one documentary they said the half of her near the water was completely gone to the bones, even the clothes, the other half was rotting. She said the room was filled with an stench nobody could imagine. Could anybody imagine this sight? And she said since then she never ever could think on her daughter other than see her like in that way. Could anybody imagine this? What did they to this Lady Oh GOD! I swear you it breaks my heart. I still wish one could do anything for her. For me is no question all that torture let her cancer break out, since we know enough about these things around soul and health.
The tears are pouring down my face. Imagine having to look at pics of your child being tortured and tapes of them pleading for their lives. I am devastated just thinking about it. That poor woman.
@Syms Sisters video's it also doesn't teach you to murder and rape multiple children and then lie about it. Myra broke multiple commandments then faked sympathy.
Longford telling the mother of a murdered child that she won't see her again in Heaven if she doesn't forgive Hindley, proves what sort of a deluded f**king nonce he was. Rip Ann ♥️
@Syms Sisters video's Oh please, God will forgive Ann West and the 'Christianity' that you refer to is entirely man made rubbish. I suppose you also believe those low enough to commit suicide are punished in the afterlife for all eternity? The Christianity you speak of is utter fiction, nothing more than a bargaining chip for those in power centuries before, to ensure their rule and influence by terrify peasants into submission with tales of Hades, fire and brimstone.
After losing her daughter in the cruelest way she had to be subjected to listening to absolute tw@ts like that woman calling Myra an angel in front of her. WTF!!! What a brave, composed, real woman. Rip Lesley and Ann I am 100% sure you are together in heaven ❤️
Alan too. Wjat a wonderful husband and step father he was. He suffered abuse and gross disrespect from the police. In this day and age I am sure that he could have sued Manchester police. That poor man!
As a mother of a 10-year-old daughter, my heart breaks for Mrs West and I hope she finally got her peace and is in heaven with her daughter. You should be proud Mrs west you never stop fighting for your angle. To all people who were forcing her to forgive that monster shame on you for fighting to set free the evil.🙏🏽🌹
The lovely and charming Ann West. What a strong and notable lady she always was. At least she passed away with dignity and the knowledge that Hindley was still in prison. The world is a sadder place without Ann West and her like. God Bless Ann. Back with Lesley Ann where you both belong. XX
It was any mothers worst nightmare & I sympathise with all they suffered. Mrs Reade spent years not knowing what had become of her daughter & understandably her health suffered as a result; this only improved once Pauline was found. Mrs West had to listen & see her daughters suffering, can anything be worse? To manage her distress Mrs West was prescribed a cocktail of sedatives & other medications which, I think, may have caused her to become confused about certain events. This is understanding, as she herself said, she was virtually in a trance at some points & haunted by the sounds & images of Leslie Ann. David Smith, to his eternal credit, seemed to have understood this. Maureen less so perhaps, although I sympathise with what Maureen experienced I don't find her particularly likeable and the fact that she, a mother herself, was able to forgive her sister & lobby for her release leaves a nasty taste. Only Nellie Hindley appears to have been quite pleasant, though she did lie at the trial.
@@jackr1779 I totally agree with you all those families suffered so much Ann West on seeing and hearing her daughter's suffering you can see it aged her and she has that vacant look in her eyes its really sad. The Reade family had 24 years of not knowing what happened and apparently Joan Reade was admitted to a psyche ward and was heavily sedated at her daughters funeral. Winnie Johnson never found her son and died of a broken heart. John Kilbride's parents divorced and his dad was a broken man when he died same as John Kilbride's mum. The Evans family completely hid away. It really goes to show that even though they were caught and sent to prison, Hindley and Brady left a massive trail of destruction behind them how anyone could have argued and fought for Hindley's release is shocking she was just as involved and culpable as Brady was and that tape proved it and sealed her fate. Evil pair of cunts
God love this woman- no human being should have to go through what she wentthrough! You could see the torture and pain in her face all the time- I feel sure thatshe is re-united with Lesley now!
If anyone has heard that tape it’s absolutely heartbreaking. And for this poor woman to have to listen to that and what her daughter was begging for her life. Ann West died the day Lesley Anne did. Two of the most evil pieces of shit to ever grace this earth. And I hope they’re being tortured in hell. RIP Mrs West.
Abbie Hunter Unless Willow MacGregor worked for the police when the tape was found or he/she were in the courtroom during the trial then there’s no way he/she would have heard the tape. It was never released for the general public to listen to as apparently it was so upsetting to hear what was happening to that poor little girl. I don’t know how Mrs West coped with hearing it, if I had to listen to my daughter like that I think I would be inconsolable. That poor lady, her life must’ve been horrendous just like the parents of the other children who were murdered probably were. If those monsters had been caught a few weeks earlier they would’ve been executed but unfortunately the death penalty was abolished shortly before their trial. If anyone deserved to be hanged it was those 2 vile killers 😡
@Abbie Hazel Florence Hunter Men as well as women have a natural desire to protect the young. This is why Brady was relentlessly targeted by his fellow inmates. Even the Kray twins, among the most vicious gangsters ever, hated Brady for what he did. They also wrote sympathetic letters to Ann West.
Poor Poor lady. The pain, anguish and suffering she must have endured throughout the years is something I can only try to imagine, should I ever wish to, which obviously I wont. The stark, awful memory of that sweet and innocent little pleading voice must have driven her to despair, year after long miserable year. If there is a Heaven, I sincerely hope that she's reunited with her little babe once more and caring for her once again throughout all eternirity.
I'm so grateful that you are with her now 💓 I couldn't imagine losing my girls and then having to be tortured into listening to my child begging for their life.Be at peace
Ann was my favourite parent involved with this case, her and Winnie Johnson, since they were determined that no matter what, that diabolical bitch would rot inside. And they succeeded, if it wasn't for Ann and her grief for little Lesley, Hindley would've been walking the streets again a long time ago. She knew that and so she fought on, for her sake and for Lesley's sake. I read the transcript of the "Lesley Tape" and some of the stuff that Hindley said was unforgivable, threatening to punch her one if she didn't do what Brady said. The feelings Lesley must have felt whilst Ian and Myra were abusing her must have been horrifying as hell. I hope Lesley and Ann have found each other again. RIP Mother and Daughter.
She also tortured David Smith, the hero who led police to Brady and Hindley. She also tortured Smith's wife Maureen (Myra Hindley's sister, who was totally innocent and knew absolutely nothing of Myra's crimes), viciously attacking her while pregnant, almost causing her to miscarry. Her campaign of physical and verbal harassment led Maureen to become an alcoholic and she died aged 34. Not bad enough yet? Ann West intruded on Maureen's funeral and launched a vicious unprovoked attack on an innocent bystander she mistakenly thought was Myra Hindley (who wasn't even at the funeral).
Rubbish, and it was Mr & Mrs Kilbride that "intruded" on Maureen's funeral believing Hindley might be present. Only post what you know to be factually correct & don't post false aspersions about this wonderful lady.You are a disgrace.
How dare you. I was at the funeral, I saw it with my own eyes. I don't need to comment any further to random "internet sleuths" who don't know anything about the case and have no connection to it.
Jack R wonderful lady is exactly what she was. And i dont blame the Kilbrides either. Myra was pure evil. Anyone including Maureen who stuck up for her was wrong
I have tears running down my face the suffering that woman must have gone through I can only imagine. May she rest in peace god bless her. And as for the two evil pair I hope there is a place where They will truly get their comeuppance may they rot in hell!
I looked up Ann here after watching her recount the disappearance of her daughter Lesley in The Moors Murders movie. Her pain was so palpable that I had to catch my breath. All I wanted to do was hug her... 😪
Ann West must have had to listen to that tape what they recorded of her daughters voice over and over again. No words could ever describe how she must have felt. I hope she's at peace now and with her beautiful daughter.
You can see the toll it took on Ann West the poor woman she looks so vacant and it really aged her. That evil pair left a massive trail of destruction behind them when they went to prison, they destroyed those families and Hindley had the nerve to keep screaming her innocence and attempts at parole was a slap in the face to the families thank god both were never released
She will be with her child now as. Will winnie Johnson I do remember the moors murders I was young I wil always remember the evil faces of Hindley and Brady on the front of the newspapers
jackybaby1999 yes I’m sure god would forgive her!! We’re human after all!!! If I was in Ann’s shoes I would never forgive them either!!! RIP beautiful Ann and Lesley xxx
As a mom and grandma..I can't know how she got through her pain...for them to make her listen to the tape of her baby begging for her life was inhumane. I fill this not the forgiveness God was talking on, for I agree with this mother God would not hold her unforgivness on this against her!! I surely would have went mad ..even today.
Yes He will Ann, God will forgive you. It is beyond a mother whose precious child has been brutally murdered to ever forgive her killers. Reunited, rest in peace with your beloved Lesley 🌹
This is so very sad to see the mothers face such grief. Even though, except one child hasn't been found..yet and he will. These poor women and their families will grieve until the day they pass. I most certainly would've backed her in the killing of hindley if she was let out alive but thankful that she did rot in prison. I hope to God that bradey does leave some sort of clue to where Kieth is on that moor then Brady can be burned alive for all I care!!!! Rest in peace with your children, John, Lesley Ann, Edward and Kieth and may God bless Pauline and her family xxxxxxxx
It's a cruel world I hope Ann is resting in peace now with her daughter. All these years Ann's life must have been torture! I remember my son went missing when he was 5 he rode off on his bike I couldn't find him anywhere. For two hours we looked for him and I was thinking someone had got him. I remember breaking down crying then as I turned the corner a police man had brought him back home the relief I felt was overwhelming I couldn't thank the police man enough. I really don't understand how them evil pair could have done what they did neither do I want to understand. That poor girl how could she as a woman allow that to happen I really don't know but hopefully she is getting what she deserves in hell!
Myra Hindley may have been pathologically submissive. Her desire to please her man overrode the natural protectiveness that she should have felt for children.
@@debbiepeter112 I have less mothering instinct than 99% of females. I don't have kids; I've never babysat a child. If MY man asked me to harm a child, I would have reported it to the cops! NO WAY I would have gone along w/it. But there are many cases of women who have gone along w/dreadful crimes to hold a relationship together. A mom is in prison in TX because she failed to protect her child fr/her lesbian GF who was executed for murdering the kid.
@@Denisenoe That's horrible about the fx mum. I am the same. I never had anything to do with kids, always kept my distance. I have a 10 year old son from tbe unplanned pregnancy. I love him to bits but still dont have anything to do with other kids. I am just not the type of woman to coo over babies etc. However, I would never ever hurt a child. If someone even said it as a joke I would be at the police station within no time at all reporting them. Hindley and women like her are not normal.
It’s heartbreaking to watch Ann West. A very brave woman. It’s disgusting how Ann West and her husband were treated by the police back then. I hope Ann has found some peace being with her daughter Lesley.
No words can do this lady justice and the years of unimaginable suffering she endured. Reminded of her today and had to find somewhere to pay my respects. RIP Ann, I am sure Lesley was waiting for you and your wish to be reunited was finally realised.
How on earth could anyone forgive what they did. I don’t know how Ann got through the years she must have gone through hell. Yes she would have gone to heaven and been at peace with Lesley. I remember my son going missing he went off on his bike and that two hours were a nightmare, I remember thinking someone had got him it was a terrible feeling and then to my relief the police brought him back. So yes all them years and having to listen to them tapes. Ann will be in heaven and those two monsters hopefully in hell where they belong!
Omg that poor poor woman had to live with the pain all her life , you can see she was absolutely tortured and who wouldn’t be after having to listen to her baby crying out for her on that recording .
Just finished watching a documentary on the moors murders. God bless Ann West ❤ Im so relieved to know she’s been reunited with her beloved Lesley , hope they’re both happy forever in heaven xxx
Ann West and her husband showed grace, dignity and restraint throughout their tragic and evil ordeals. R.I.P. to both of them. Rot in hell Lord Longford upper class idiot!
Lesley and Ann are safe in heaven now, together forever🩷🧡 While the other two demons are god knows where. Devoid of love or hope or God. Just like they deserve.
That was a doctor called Sarah Trevellian (Might have spelt that wrong), she went to Holloway Prison numerous times as part of her job, and spoke to Myra Hindley as part of a prison medical course meeting, or some such shite. She too was one of Lord Longford's band of morons who was fully taken in by that bitch's lies
Some people are harsh and unforgiving. But some things are just too basic, too awful, for a human being to forgive. The families of the Moors Murders victims understandably could not forgive the brutal murders of their children.
Lord Longford exaggerated his power as did Myra Hindley herself. Great Britain has an aristocracy but their political power is quite limited. The action is not in the House of Lords but the House of Commons. Lord Longford was a wealthy man and he was not powerLESS but his title, even backed up by wealth, could not overcome the will of the majority in today's United Kingdom.
My heart goes out to Ann West and although some of her actions leave a lot to be desired it has to be said she was a traumatised woman deranged by grief and I doubt that she understood what she was doing. For those who criticize her for turning up /intruding at Maureen's funeral please understand it wasn't Maureen who was the issue it was Myra! She got an anonymous call telling her Myra was attending. Patrick Kilbride was there too. Wouldn't you do the same if your son or daughter were killed and that was your only chance of encountering Hindley? She wasn't going to meet her in prison? Please try to see it from her side
I don’t blame them but Ann and Alan West assaulted David and Maureen smith (Myra’s sister and brother in law) when they thought they were part of kidnapping Lesley-Ann. I hope they let go of their hate of David and Maureen.
Of course God has forgiven Lesley mam .he understood why the poor woman would not could not forgive .the evil pair . Liz Durham. RIP to you both Nd God bless .reunited .
@Marcus Fairweather - That's because Ann said that she didn't hear Brady on the tape, only Hindley. Ann also said that she could never understand how a woman of child-bearing age could torture a child the way Hindley did. She also wondered why Hindley didn't stop Brady from raping Lesley, again as a woman.
I’m sure I seen it in a documentary that she said she could not say forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us which is part of the our father prayer. It’s in a documentary somewhere on TH-cam.
My heart is bleeding for ann hindley should have been released for us women to do wot she did to lesley and the other children and Bury hindley at Saddleworth Moor and that brady
Her accent is it Irish, scottish, or great Britain? The accent slurs a lot I just wanna know what country this?💗RIP 2 Ann & Leslie & those poor other children!😭💗✌
As a mother and a gran I can't even begin to imagine what she had to go through and to have had to listen to that tape....there are no words. God bless you and hope you are reunited at last
She should not have had to listen to the tape, l know that Lesley's voice had to be identified but the effect it had on Ann was a death knell to her.
The way police treat victims of crime leaves a lot to be desired at times and the identification of Lesley Ann Downey was no exception, asking her mother to view the photos of her gagged and bound and even worse having to listen to the tape recording of her being abused. And the media exploited her again and again over the next 30 years with the horrific details being recalled repeatedly, all for the sake of The Sun and the Mirror and all the rest of them wanting to sell a few more papers. And worst of all they did it when Mrs West was slowly dying of cancer.
@@murdered33 She listened to it twice: once at the police station, once during trial. She was shown 2 of the photos taken -- the 2 the cops thought would be easiest to see.
@@firebird7388 She was shown the 2 pics the cops thought least horrifying.
@@firebird7388
She lost her child she was pregnabt with too. She lost two children.
And never forget, she was forced to look at her in the Morgue, alone, her husband was forbidden to come with her.
She had to look at her dear child, which had been TEN MONTH in the ground even with no coffin. In one documentary they said the half of her near the water was completely gone to the bones, even the clothes, the other half was rotting. She said the room was filled with an stench nobody could imagine. Could anybody imagine this sight?
And she said since then she never ever could think on her daughter other than see her like in that way. Could anybody imagine this?
What did they to this Lady
Oh GOD! I swear you it breaks my heart. I still wish one could do anything for her.
For me is no question all that torture let her cancer break out, since we know enough about these things around soul and health.
The tears are pouring down my face. Imagine having to look at pics of your child being tortured and tapes of them pleading for their lives. I am devastated just thinking about it. That poor woman.
She definitely went to heaven. I can’t see god keeping Leslie from her mother or vise versa, for eternity. May they both Rest In Peace together ❤️
@Syms Sisters video's it also doesn't teach you to murder and rape multiple children and then lie about it. Myra broke multiple commandments then faked sympathy.

She had 2 sons one died at 5 months old and the other died in a house fire trying to save his 7 year old daughter in 2001
Sleep peacefully Ann - both dead now as of today. Rest in peace with your daughter x

Never preach forgiveness to someone in distress. It's not a wise move.

She will be with her child now as. Will winnie Johnson I do remember the moors murders I was young I wil always remember the evil faces of Hindley and Brady on the front of the newspapers
I think the Lord forgave her just fine for not forgiving Myra Hindley.
jackybaby1999 yes I’m sure god would forgive her!! We’re human after all!!! If I was in Ann’s shoes I would never forgive them either!!!

I surely would have went mad ..even today.
Yes He will Ann, God will forgive you. It is beyond a mother whose precious child has been brutally murdered to ever forgive her killers. Reunited, rest in peace with your beloved Lesley 🌹
I totally understand why she can't forgive
Her daughter was taken away rip Ann
such an incredible woman, the pain and suffering those two animals put her through is unimaginable.
R.I.Paradise Beautiful Ann West back in the arms of your little Angel Lesley Ann fly high fly free together at peace.👼🏻🕊
R.I.P Ann, reunited with Lesley Ann
This is so very sad to see the mothers face such grief. Even though, except one child hasn't been found..yet and he will. These poor women and their families will grieve until the day they pass. I most certainly would've backed her in the killing of hindley if she was let out alive but thankful that she did rot in prison. I hope to God that bradey does leave some sort of clue to where Kieth is on that moor then Brady can be burned alive for all I care!!!! Rest in peace with your children, John, Lesley Ann, Edward and Kieth and may God bless Pauline and her family xxxxxxxx
That poor tortured soul RIP dear lady .
It's a cruel world I hope Ann is resting in peace now with her daughter.
All these years Ann's life must have been torture!
I remember my son went missing when he was 5 he rode off on his bike I couldn't find him anywhere. For two hours we looked for him and I was thinking someone had got him. I remember breaking down crying then as I turned the corner a police man had brought him back home the relief I felt was overwhelming I couldn't thank the police man enough. I really don't understand how them evil pair could have done what they did neither do I want to understand. That poor girl how could she as a woman allow that to happen I really don't know but hopefully she is getting what she deserves in hell!
Myra Hindley may have been pathologically submissive. Her desire to please her man overrode the natural protectiveness that she should have felt for children.
@@Denisenoe Rubbish. I dont care how much you want to please your man, a normal woman could never hurt a child!
@@debbiepeter112 I have less mothering instinct than 99% of females. I don't have kids; I've never babysat a child. If MY man asked me to harm a child, I would have reported it to the cops! NO WAY I would have gone along w/it. But there are many cases of women who have gone along w/dreadful crimes to hold a relationship together. A mom is in prison in TX because she failed to protect her child fr/her lesbian GF who was executed for murdering the kid.
@@Denisenoe That's horrible about the fx mum. I am the same. I never had anything to do with kids, always kept my distance. I have a 10 year old son from tbe unplanned pregnancy. I love him to bits but still dont have anything to do with other kids. I am just not the type of woman to coo over babies etc. However, I would never ever hurt a child. If someone even said it as a joke I would be at the police station within no time at all reporting them. Hindley and women like her are not normal.
@@debbiepeter112 I have to wonder how many women living normal lives might be in prison if they met the wrong man (or woman).
Breaks my heart
It’s heartbreaking to watch Ann West. A very brave woman. It’s disgusting how Ann West and her husband were treated by the police back then. I hope Ann has found some peace being with her daughter Lesley.
No words can do this lady justice and the years of unimaginable suffering she endured. Reminded of her today and had to find somewhere to pay my respects. RIP Ann, I am sure Lesley was waiting for you and your wish to be reunited was finally realised.
Ann you are an amazing human being, I have the utmost respect for you and your family. RIP dear Ann with your beautiful Lesley xx
How on earth could anyone forgive what they did. I don’t know how Ann got through the years she must have gone through hell. Yes she would have gone to heaven and been at peace with Lesley. I remember my son going missing he went off on his bike and that two hours were a nightmare, I remember thinking someone had got him it was a terrible feeling and then to my relief the police brought him back. So yes all them years and having to listen to them tapes. Ann will be in heaven and those two monsters hopefully in hell where they belong!
Ann will be in Heaven with Leslie xx
Your right girl your gone2heaven wiv your child x
She suffered more than anyone. Rest in Peace Ann
@Abbie Hunter Yep Abbie, you're right. Winnie also suffered, along with the others.
This is what u call a mother. A woman who would die for her child. Rest in eternal peace ms west
God bless you Mrs West.
Omg that poor poor woman had to live with the pain all her life , you can see she was absolutely tortured and who wouldn’t be after having to listen to her baby crying out for her on that recording .
God Bless You Ann ,, United with Lesley Ann .
The contrast between two blondes . One kind faced, kind hearted and attractive . .The other thing however !!
Lisa Brown Myra’s blonde hair was dye. She was a natural brunette.
Lord Longford was a disgrace.
Rumours stated the senile old cunt was a nonce.
He fucking was
He does like a bit noncey
God bless her
Just finished watching a documentary on the moors murders. God bless Ann West ❤ Im so relieved to know she’s been reunited with her beloved Lesley , hope they’re both happy forever in heaven xxx
You're with your little girl now xxxx
Rest in peace Ann & Lesley
RIP Ann West
Very hard to understand, but this poor courageous woman, feel for for her so much. You are back with your daughter now.
What Ann had to go through was heartbreaking. God bless you love ❤ x
Ann West and her husband showed grace, dignity and restraint throughout their tragic and evil ordeals. R.I.P. to both of them. Rot in hell Lord Longford upper class idiot!
The vile bastard was a nonce.
Lesley and Ann are safe in heaven now, together forever🩷🧡
While the other two demons are god knows where. Devoid of love or hope or God. Just like they deserve.
Top lady x
Who was that young woman with the funny hair who wants Hindley let out? Why did they include someone like that in a program with the mothers?
That was a doctor called Sarah Trevellian (Might have spelt that wrong), she went to Holloway Prison numerous times as part of her job, and spoke to Myra Hindley as part of a prison medical course meeting, or some such shite. She too was one of Lord Longford's band of morons who was fully taken in by that bitch's lies
Some people are harsh and unforgiving. But some things are just too basic, too awful, for a human being to forgive. The families of the Moors Murders victims understandably could not forgive the brutal murders of their children.
Lord Longford exaggerated his power as did Myra Hindley herself. Great Britain has an aristocracy but their political power is quite limited. The action is not in the House of Lords but the House of Commons. Lord Longford was a wealthy man and he was not powerLESS but his title, even backed up by wealth, could not overcome the will of the majority in today's United Kingdom.
Longford was a nonce, the vile monster.
RIP Ann.
This poor tortured soul died aged 60 .
Its great that those evil bastards died in prison god bless Ann rest well
Lovely Mrs West
One brave lady x
My heart goes out to Ann West and although some of her actions leave a lot to be desired it has to be said she was a traumatised woman deranged by grief and I doubt that she understood what she was doing. For those who criticize her for turning up /intruding at Maureen's funeral please understand it wasn't Maureen who was the issue it was Myra! She got an anonymous call telling her Myra was attending. Patrick Kilbride was there too. Wouldn't you do the same if your son or daughter were killed and that was your only chance of encountering Hindley? She wasn't going to meet her in prison? Please try to see it from her side
I didn't know she turned up at Maureen's Funeral Grief Consumed her didn't it ?
thank god that monster is now gone and her evil partner......
Poor woman the suffering would unimaginable all those yrs thinking about what they did
Longford did more damage to Hindley's case then anyone i know..
i thought my thoughts on Lord Longford couldn't be lowered but.... 😞 what he said. To a traumatised grieving mother?
I don’t blame them but Ann and Alan West assaulted David and Maureen smith (Myra’s sister and brother in law) when they thought they were part of kidnapping Lesley-Ann. I hope they let go of their hate of David and Maureen.
Pure evil them two
God bless mrs west🙏🏼❤️
😢
RIP x
He thinks because he’s a lord he gets to say who has to forgive 😂 he will rot he’s also just as sick as the killers
Rest in peace
Of course God has forgiven Lesley mam .he understood why the poor woman would not could not forgive .the evil pair .
Liz Durham.
RIP to you both Nd God bless .reunited .
She seemed to loathe Hindley a lot more than Brady
@Marcus Fairweather - That's because Ann said that she didn't hear Brady on the tape, only Hindley. Ann also said that she could never understand how a woman of child-bearing age could torture a child the way Hindley did. She also wondered why Hindley didn't stop Brady from raping Lesley, again as a woman.
@Charlie Charlie = You are SO right!!
'
She such a brave woman... I know she she with her daughter now.. X
There’s also the fact that Hindley may have actually been the one to strangle Lesley with a cord herself.
They were a year after the last Hanging in Britain otherwise, yes they would probably have been hung.
What part of the prayer didn't she want to say?
I’m sure I seen it in a documentary that she said she could not say forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us which is part of the our father prayer. It’s in a documentary somewhere on TH-cam.
My heart is bleeding for ann hindley should have been released for us women to do wot she did to lesley and the other children and Bury hindley at Saddleworth Moor and that brady
She shouldn't have had motherly instinct but she should have had human instincts
terrible absolutely awful.
Her accent is it Irish, scottish, or great Britain? The accent slurs a lot I just wanna know what country this?💗RIP 2 Ann & Leslie & those poor other children!😭💗✌
Its a British accent. It's a Manchester accent from the north of England
Ann speaks with a Manchester or generally a Lancashire accent. Somebody please correct me here if I am wrong.
Manchester in England
